Abstract
The Research and Practice Committee of the American Dance Therapy Association (ADTA) presents the research poster session at each annual conference. The abstracts reported in this paper were selected by the authors for the 2020 Virtual Research and Thesis Poster Session at the 55th Annual ADTA Conference. This year, the 55th Annual ADTA conference took place online, on a virtual platform, featuring three major themes: 1) Emotional regulation and narrative therapy; 2) Dementia, Parkinson’s disease, traumatic brain injury, and use of props across all ages; 3) Identity, inclusion and diversity issues within dance/movement therapy. The following ten poster abstracts have been selected for their quality and contributions to dance/movement therapy literature and feature a wide range of scholarly works in current research.
